For MS_MOVE: do_move_mount(), after lock_mount(), when the mount tree is stable and pathnames are resolved. For MS_BIND: do_loopback(), ditto. Incidentally, for pivot_root(2) I would also suggest moving that past the lock_mount(), for the same reasons. For propagation flag changes: do_change_type(), after namespace_lock(). For per-mount flag changes: do_reconfigure_mnt(), possibly after having grabbed ->s_umount. For fs remount: IMO it should be handled purely in ->sb_remount(). For new mount: really depends upon the filesystem type, I'm afraid. There's nothing type-independent that can be done - in the best case you can say "no mounting block filesystems from that device"; note that for NFS the meaning of the argument is entirely different and you *can* have something like foo.local.org: as a name of symlink (or directory), so blanket "you can mount foo.local.org:/srv/nfs/blah" is asking for trouble - mount -t ext4 foo.local.org:/srv/nfs/blah /mnt can bloody well end up successfully mounting a very untrusted usb disk. Note, BTW, that things like cramfs can be given * mtd:mtd_device_name * mtd<decimal number> * block device pathname The last one needs to be resolved/canonicalized/whatnot. The other two must *NOT* - there's nothing to stop the attacker from ln -s /dev/mtdblock0 ./mtd12 and confusing the fsck out of your LSM (it would assume that we are trying to get mtd0 when in reality it'll mount mtd12). The rules really need to be type-dependent; ->sb_set_mnt_opts() has the state after the fs has been initialized to work with, but anything trying to stop the attempt to set the damn thing up in the first place (as current ->sb_mount() would) must be called from the inside of individual ->get_tree()/->mount() instance (or a helper used by such).
